    Do dents and scratches count?
    Looking for ideas on relocating my trailer plug. The inevitable happened today while doing some light snow wheeling, I bent the thing on a stump.

    Does anyone have ideas / pics of a good relocation point?

    There's a gut on here who makes and sells an aluminium (or stainless steel) mount/bracket for the plug that lays horizontal on the frame.

    It keeps the plug safe for off roading. He sold quite a few on TW.

    Maybe someone can post his thread... I can't seem to find it.

    looks like it would be real easy to make a bracket yourself to move it up.

    I came across a thread where the OP mounted it where the drivers side license plate light mounts. Not a fan of that as it could be damaged while standing on the back bumper. Ill probably look into a frame mount tucked in behind the rear bumper. Just wondering if anyone had done this and could share a pic or two.
